Lu Heng's two furry claws swiped at them. The claws emitted bursts of green light and a rotten stench. If they were scratched, it would be hard to imagine how uncomfortable it would be.
However, regardless of whether it was Lu Xiaotian or Su Qing, they were enough to stop Lu Heng. After all, the immense power of their Jindan artifacts allowed them to fight it head-on. Logically speaking, when the two beasts knew that they were no match for them, they would more or less show a trace of fear or apprehension. However, from the current situation, the two beasts did not seem to be worried about retreating at all.
Lu Xiaotian and Su Qing, who was the first to react, attacked at the same time. With a sword and a whip, they sealed off the two beasts' paths of attack and even their paths of retreat. In just a few moves, they would be able to kill the two incomparably powerful Yin Corpses. However, just as the two of them attacked and the other three reacted and were about to join in the battle, an extremely low voice suddenly rang out in this mysterious space. At this juncture, behind the Seven Night Ancient Netherworld Flower, there was originally a patch of deathly silence and darkness. However, this patch of darkness suddenly condensed into a single point, forming a black mirror. Suddenly, three basket-sized white skulls emerged from the mirror. With a sinister smile, they opened their mouths and bit at Lu Xiaotian, Luo Qian, and Su Qing. Each of the skulls exuded a powerful aura. On their foreheads was the word 'Hou'.
Ghost monkeys were originally equivalent to human Foundation Establishment cultivators. The three skulls in front of them had the word 'Hou' on them, which was as black as ink. They were already the strongest among ghost monkeys. Lu Xiaotian could even sense that these ghost monkeys' auras were not much weaker than the green armored skeleton from before.
Su Qing and Luo Qian were originally focused on the Lion Crocodile Demon and Lu Heng. However, Su Qing had already used up her attack and had no time to withdraw. Facing the skull that was about to bite him, he panicked for no reason. On the other hand, Luo Qian woke up half a beat slower than Su Qing. Previously, Lu Xiaotian and Su Qing were the ones who attacked. At this time, Luo Qian was able to free himself. He waved his hands, and a huge lightning spear flashed. Its powerful aura even surpassed the Blazing Flame Sword. The lightning spear formed a huge lightning pillar and directly blasted forward.
One of the white skulls, which had been laughing arrogantly, suddenly stopped. It opened its mouth and spat out a cloud of gray smoke. Within the smoke, there seemed to be countless souls howling. When the lightning struck the smoke, waves of miserable screams could be heard. Under the bombardment of the lightning, the smoke sizzled. However, the fierce light of the lightning was quickly fading away.
What a powerful lightning spear. No wonder Luo Qian was looking at him with an increasingly eager gaze. He never thought that he would obtain a lightning elemental core magic tool. Lei Wantian really valued this disciple of his. Lu Xiaotian was speechless. He had fought for his life outside and obtained his core essence with great difficulty. However, Luo Qian had a good master and it was worth his countless efforts. It really was infuriating to compare oneself to others.
Due to the addition of the three skulls, the strength of both sides suddenly changed. The three skulls were at the peak of the Ghost Monkey Stage, and with the addition of the Lü Hou, there were four powerhouses at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Stage. Regardless of whether it was the Lü Hou Yin Corpse or the skulls, they were far more difficult to deal with than normal cultivators. Based on cultivation alone, the other side already had the absolute advantage. Hu Ruining and Xia Dong looked at each other in dismay. There was a hint of retreat on their faces.
The three skulls were clearly not easy to deal with. Moreover, Lu Xiaotian discovered an extremely complicated situation. Ever since the three skulls had appeared, the gray ripples emitted by the Seven Night Hell Ancient Flower seemed to have been absorbed by the skulls. After the one fighting Luo Qian had eliminated the power of the lightning pillar, it cackled strangely and returned to its previous arrogance. It was reasonable to say that lightning cultivators were the nemesis of ghost cultivators. He never thought that the skulls in front of him would not be afraid of them. It was definitely because of the Seven Night Hell Ancient Flower. However, the most important thing right now was to block the remaining two skulls.
Without further ado, Lu Xiaotian shouted, "Junior Apprentice Sister Su, kill the Green Salamander. Senior Apprentice Brother Xia and Senior Apprentice Brother Hu, kill the Lion Crocodile. I'll block these two skulls first."
Xia Dong and Hu Ruining instinctively felt a wave of doubt. Even Luo Qian, who could restrain ghost cultivators, could only barely block one of the skulls. Lu Xiaotian was only relying on a fire-elemental Jindan magic tool. Even Luo Qian might not be able to compete with it. He actually dared to boast that he could block two skulls. He really didn't know what he was talking about.
Just as the two of them were privately questioning each other, a huge earthen-yellow puppet appeared out of thin air. The puppet held a hammer in one hand and a large earthen-yellow shield in the other. The arrogant skulls just happened to block the sturdy shield. After being bounced back, the skulls were immediately enraged. They opened their mouths and spat out a large amount of gray smoke. In the blink of an eye, the gray smoke had surrounded the puppet. Lu Xiaotian seemed to be able to feel countless vengeful spirits surrounding the puppet and madly biting it. Lu Xiaotian was inwardly shocked by this level of attack. If it were him, perhaps his mind would also be somewhat affected. These skulls were really powerful. However, it was a pity that the puppet itself wasn't made of flesh and blood. It was completely controlled by Lu Xiaotian. The materials used to create the puppet were also incomparably rare. Before the skulls could see the result of their victory, the puppet smashed down with its hammer, directly hitting the white skulls. The skulls let out a strange cry and retreated in pain.
In contrast, Lu Xiaotian used the Blazing Flame Sword to block the third skulls. The incomparably hot flames burned the gray smoke, causing it to crackle. However, he was only able to fight to a draw with him.
"A puppet at the peak of the sixth rank!" Xia Dong and Hu Ruining were both shocked. Lu Xiaotian himself had the Blazing Flame Sword, but he could actually control a puppet at the peak of the sixth rank at the same time. What kind of terrifying battle prowess was this?
Luo Qian was even more furious. Ever since he and Lu Xiaotian had repelled the foreign cultivators and separated, Luo Qian was greatly stimulated. After returning to the Divine Firmament Palace, he went into closed-door training. Due to his outstanding talent, he was deeply favored by Lei Wantian. He was even bestowed with an incomparably precious lightning-attributed Jindan essence by Lei Wantian. Luo Qian refined it day and night, and his strength improved by leaps and bounds. He originally thought that he could suppress Lu Xiaotian, this old enemy. He was already surprised that Lu Xiaotian had the Blazing Flame Sword in his hand. He was well aware of Lu Xiaotian's background. It was not an ordinary difficulty for him to obtain Jindan essence. He did not expect that Lu Xiaotian not only had a Jindan essence magic item, but also a puppet at the peak of the sixth rank. Moreover, he had cultivated a strange Divine Sense attack method, which allowed him to multitask. In terms of strength, Luo Qian was confident that he could deal with Lu Xiaotian with the Blazing Flame Sword, or this puppet. However, the two added together was not as simple as one plus one equals. Luo Qian bitterly discovered that if he were to fight with Lu Xiaotian at this time, he could only flee. The puppet was good at defense, and the Blazing Flame Sword was good at offense. With the two working together, he was not confident that he could last long.
Among the group, only Su Qing was overjoyed. Taking advantage of the fact that Luo Qian and Lu Xiaotian were holding back the three human skulls that suddenly appeared, Su Qing swung the golden whip in her hand, wrapping it around Lu Heng's neck. The golden whip squirmed strangely, like a snake wrapping around something, and then quickly strangling it to death. Lu Heng fiercely fought back, struggling, wanting to break free, but was tightly bound by the golden whip.
At this time, Xia Dong and Lu Heng, whose suspicions had disappeared, joined forces to fight the Lion Crocodile Demon. The two of them were shocked to discover that although their cultivations were higher, when it came to fighting, they were at the bottom of the group.
Lu Xiaotian controlled the Blazing Flaming Sword to fight with one of the skeletons while controlling the Earth Golem to chase after another skeletons that were in a rather sorry state with its heavy hammer. This human skull was hit by the puppet's hammer several times. Every time it was damaged, Lu Xiaotian could feel the aura of the Seven Night Hell Ancient Flower, restoring the human skull's vitality.
Lu Xiaotian's heart trembled. As long as the Seven Night Hell Ancient Flower was present, these human skulls would be in an invincible position.
Luo Qian also discovered the same problem. In order not to lose face in front of Su Qing, Luo Qian forced his opponent's hand to retreat, and became one with the spear, thrusting it towards the Seven Night Hell Ancient Flower. Circulating his strength and magic power to the extreme, the human skulls were actually unable to resist. They could only reduce part of Luo Qian's attack power. The spear tip pierced towards the Seven Night Hell Ancient Flower. If this evil plant could be destroyed, these human skulls would become trees without roots. No matter how powerful they were, they wouldn't be able to last for long.
However, a huge skeletal hand suddenly stretched out from the pitch-black mirror. The skeletal hand carried a vast aura. It looked like it was originally dozens of feet away from Luo Qian, but this distance was crossed by the skeletal hand in the blink of an eye. The skeletal hand was unbelievably fast. The skeletal hand directly grabbed towards Luo Qian's chest.
Luo Qian was shocked. He didn't expect another unforeseen event to occur. He didn't have time to think. The lightning spear swept towards the skeletal hand. The two forces produced an intense collision.
However, the skeletal hand's aura was even more powerful. Luo Qian had already repelled a human skull. His momentum had already weakened a bit. Under another sneak attack, he unexpectedly couldn't withstand it. In the blink of an eye, the huge skeletal hand broke through the lightning spear's defense. Its claw directly grabbed towards Luo Qian's chest. Luo Qian's complexion was greatly shocked. Although the skeletal hand still hadn't grabbed him, that deathly aura was assaulting his senses. Even if he didn't die, having this strange evil power invade his body, he probably wouldn't feel good.
At this critical moment, an earthen-yellow sledgehammer whistled over and hit the skeletal hand. It was precisely the sledgehammer wielded by the clay puppet that repelled the human skulls.
With a bang, the skeletal hand was repelled by the sledgehammer. The clay puppet wasn't like human cultivators. In fact, as long as the spiritual power in the spirit stone wasn't exhausted, the clay puppet was a battle machine that would never tire.
The sledgehammer whistled as it struck the Seven Night Hell Ancient Flower. The grey radiance on the Seven Night Hell Ancient Flower trembled chaotically. It looked faintly like it was about to collapse.
"Damn it!" A gnashing voice came from the black mirror.
